First time at Pohick

Got in the water about 600am.   The first bite was what looked to be a 3lb LMB, it was at most 10ft away when it bit, but the line broke not long after hooking up. Must've been something wrong with the line.   I headed up the creek and once there was some deeper, open water I caught a white perch.   Way up the creek I found a nice area with some good holes.  Got something that looked like a cross between a bluegill and redbreast.  Another cast to the same spot got a small yellow perch.  And then another cast to the same spot got a thick 15" 2lb LMB.  Then just up from this spot I hooked up with another LMB.  I thought I had the same fish again until I saw that this one had a black inner upper lip.  Fished around this area for a while a got a bunch of smaller bass, redbreasts and another YP.  Heading back I took a different route and did see one snakehead that slipped under a small grass patch to hide.   Later I saw another one that was in the 4-5lb range.

Floating back in the current in the deeper area I started tossing a senko. They weren't fond of the green pumpkin one so I tried black.  That worked.  I was able to catch two more in the 15-16" range and one more got off because I was taking my time with it and it buried itself in the weeds.

Yeah, saw several other kayaks out there.  Some spots aren't so accessible by bass boats and larger.

Looks like you had a nice multi-species day. Only thing missing was a snakehead smile. That itsy bitsy minnow is a very versatile lure. I bet a snakehead would hit it because it resembles a killifish somewhat
